Dedication to our Founding Principal, Hajj Mohamad El Dana

It is with deep sorrow and sadness that Al Amanah College announces the passing of its Founding and Head Principal, Mr. Mohamad El Dana, on Tuesday 21st March 2023. His passing is a great loss to the Al Amanah Schools community, as well as the wider community.

Following this heartbreaking news, there has been an outpouring of messages from current and former students, parents, and staff members emphasizing his noble impact on their lives. Mr. El Dana was an exceptional educator and engineer who dedicated his life to promoting high-quality education that integrates Islamic values and principles in Australia.

He was instrumental in the establishment and flourishment of Al Amanah Islamic schools in Australia, including Bankstown Campus in 1998 and Liverpool Campus in 2002.

He played a pivotal role in shaping the mission and values of this insruction and worked tirelessly to ensure students receive a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in both this life and the Hereafter. His memory will live on through his enduring legacy of inspiration for future generations of students and educators.

He will be fondly remembered for his acts of kindness, his unwavering humility, and his profound commitment to his faith and community. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. We also extend our condolences to the Al Amanah Schools community and everyone who knew and worked with him.

We ask Allah to elevate him to the highest rank in Paradise and give his family the strength and patience to bear this great loss.

Aameen.
